15lb Baby Born Naturally Is UK's Second Biggest Ever

Forget the lemon and grapefruit analogy, one mum got rather more than she bargained for giving birth to her first son - who weighed in at a whopping 15lb 7oz, making him the second biggest baby ever born in the UK.

George Joseph King was born after a 16-hour delivery to worried young parents Jade Packer and Ryan King, both 21.

They revealed how, because of his size, George was cut off from oxygen for five whole minutes and his shoulders got stuck on the way out. He was given just a 10 per cent chance of survival but months later is doing well.

The big little man was born 15 days after his due date and had to remain in hospital for four and a half weeks to check he hadn't suffered any damage due to his hair-raising birth.
